Written answers

The Government is committed to the roll-out of a Covid-19 vaccination programme as soon as suitable products have been authorised and supplies are available.

A High-Level Taskforce has recently been established to support and oversee the development and implementation of the programme. The Taskforce is working on a national COVID-19 vaccination strategy and implementation plan and plans to submit this shortly.  It will consider the workforce the HSE will require for this programme.

Question No. 244 answered with Question No. 190.
